Everyone got in six flights each with Bill Bloodworth taking out F3A, Ron Shulz for expert, Norm Morrish in Advanced and Mathew Bailey taking out sportsman flying an ex Bill Bloodworth "Partner". On the Saturday Sporstman/Advanced/Expert flew 4 flights with F3A and masters having two.
That night it was at the Cobram colonial motel restaurant for dinner with the VPA AGM just before the meal. A great night was enjoyed by all.
The next morning some got up a little over-hung and made their way slowly to the field!!! The day went smoothly with presentation at 3:30pm and everyone on their way at 4:00pm. Full results in pdf can be seen at www.vicpattern.org.au Next one for us is at Albury hope to see you there!!!
The Electric den! Chargers and a portable oven makes the packs warm for best performance. Electric is looking very promising with the cost of conversion.
Will Crossman's YS all in bits after a bearing failiure when he was turning it over. Amazingly, he got it running and flew 4 flights on the Sunday.
The Cobram flying field-Awesome!
The Lilydale flying club that turned up to compete. An amazing effort.
Not such a brilliant ending...
That has'nt gone all that well!
Not to much flying happening here!
